Well, to be fair, not many of us ordinary car guys are all that adapt at ID’ing the differences in brand, much less diffs from year to year. But I do salute those of you who can. That’s a real talent you have. When I leave the house today, chances are, I will not be surrounded by the 85+ years vintage car makes such as Ford, Chevy, Chrysler, as well as all the later orphaned car brands. So guys like me, count on guys like you to share your wealth of knowledge in automotive history. Thank you much! Much appreciated.

Moderators - Who are they?
Jon Cole replied to Daddyfink's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
What Bob said. There has been a void left, with Harry's passing. I could never have the patience that Harry had. Then again, a "thank you" goes out to Michael & Dave. Big shoes to fill. -

If it wasn't for taillights & turn signals, I would have thought they were black & white photos for sure! Nice builds!
-
This.... should be pinned to the top of the list! It oozes attitude. A New England "wikked pissa A+! fer sure!

Lookin' so evil! Great job!

Probably because we have more (LOTS more!) photos, than what we post here. Prefer to have a way to store them independently of our hard drive.

Absolutely. It matters not, to me. We saw how well hidden it is with the Foose FD100, and I hope the Cad is as innocuous as the Ford was.

Photobucket Problems
Jon Cole replied to Dave Ambrose's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
For many of us, photo hosting goes beyond what we would use and/or share here. I have thousands of photos, and a few family or personal photos that I do not plan to share here. We still need a place to host them. Unless this board has a photo hosting capacity for private photos that I am not aware of? -
Wagon Rod needs a pie cut out of the middle, above the fender. Lower the front.

I have had nothing but problems with Photobucket for years now. I hate them. But I have way too many photos there to transfer everything. Besides, the site responds so sllooowww, it would take forever.

Maybe if you post a photo of the wheel?

DODGE DAYTONA SHELBY WHEELS
Jon Cole replied to Jon Cole's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Those may have to do. I will look for that Corvette. In fact, many Corvette kits may have something. -
I need some wheels that are similar to the "Pumper" wheel design of the late 80's- early 90's Shelby. I want to build what was our car. Found this pic on the intertubes. Doesn't have to be exact; I may have to settle for a five point wide spoke wheel. Know of any?
-
BTW, if anyone thinks there is no other version that Revell can use after the "Foose" licensing expires, I think you shouldn't put money on that. The next version could be a "generic" custom. Possibly with different wheels/tires, and decals I have to believe they desire a second version, tho I have no way of knowing for sure. Is there any examples of other models, second + version altered from first? My CRS is preventing me from citing examples.

What he said. When it's stock, everyone wants a custom. When it's custom, everyone wants a stock. LoL!

Oww! Correct you are! Incorrect is I

Fun topic; the Foose FD-100 that is. Even the guy at the area's biggest hobby shop, who had the kit opened next to the counter (somebody still does that!), was griping that none of it was "right". Why do some people not grasp that this is a custom truck? As in "not stock"? The whole beauty of Foose Designs, is the subtle modifications. Knowing that something looks different, but often not quite able to tell what that difference is. That, IMHO, is what makes a great custom.

As you should do better with a 40% off coupon! Buying at a show is, for all intensive purposes, a one time event. Under $25. at a hobby shop everyday price is about the going rate. Point is, that is a good price. Anyone buying for less, you got a great price. It won't get any lower in a hobby shop, barring any sales or coupons.

Just bought mine @ $24.99 Can't imagine at todays going model kit prices, you will ever see it any less than that.

I just bought a packet of six decal papers from Testors. Pull out the instructions and they're in every language but English. What do I have to know to use this paper? I bought a 6 pack of white paper.
